And still the games come for Chelsea.

A Champions League semi-final second leg on Tuesday or Wednesday evening would be followed by the weekend visit of Norwich to Stamford Bridge (this weekend's Premier League kick-offs are yet to be confirmed).

City make the relatively short trip to Everton, while Liverpool get the miles in with a date with Crystal Palace.

Verdict for the week: It's a far bigger test for Chelsea than for their rivals.
